25 best movie-related vines

Six-second films about films

With even the simplest of explosive summer blockbusters now coming to a running time of just under three hours, sometimes it’s good to get a refresher on quick, simple and easy to watch films that are nice and short. Six seconds short.

But, as these vines show, you can tell whole stories in six seconds, with drama, action, mystery story arcs, subplots, and huge overarching character progressions. Mostly though, they’re just really, really funny. Here are the best movie-related vines we could find on the web.

Why It's Great: It puts the Terminator in a whole new disturbing light.

If It Was Feature-Length: It would be a harrowing tale of emotional blackmail and physical abuse at the hands of a killer robot from the future.

23. Jurassic Park floor keyboard

Why It's Great: Mixing one of the greatest themes of all time with one of the greatest movie scenes of all time.

If It Was Feature-Length: We’d hear the entire score of Jurassic Park and, at the end of it, everyone in the video would be knackered.

22. Arnold Schwarzenegger driving in Canada

Why It's Great: A completely random idea by Will Sasso, topped off with a perfect Arnie accent.

If It Was Feature-Length: It would be Schwarzenegger’s Mad Max, only much more polite and inane.

21. Stanley Kubrick today

Why It's Great: If he was still alive, how would Stanley Kubrick get on with new technology and new social media? This video give us a glimpse.

If It Was Feature-Length: We would see Kubrick tweeting, stalking Facebook friends, Instagram his lunch, using Snapchat for unsavoury activity and making Vine videos. He still wouldn’t use Google+ though.

20. Beasts Of The Southern Wild summed up

Why It's Great: We thought the toy figures and big beasts were funny enough but that last screenshot kills.

If It Was Feature-Length: It would be an extended metaphor.

19. Stop-motion Mini-Me

Why It's Great: Dr. Evil asking if Mini-Me wants to “make a vine” followed by a shake of the head. You have to applaud someone who goes to such great lengths to create something so pointless.

If It Was Feature-Length: We’d hope that at least the cat might get up and do something interesting.

18. Amour summed up

Why It's Great: That shot of the dead body.

If It Was Feature-Length: It would be a beautiful study of grief and social commentary on treatment of the elderly. We’d probably prefer this version.

17. Nice House

Why It's Great: A completely new movie starring Steve Agee and Ellen Page that manages to be funny and terrifying at the same time.

If It Was Feature-Length: It would be a brutal stalker film told in real time. Much like Silent House, only with even more high-pitched screaming courtesy of Steve Agee.
